AT least 10 people have been killed, six of them at the weekend, in Sudanese government bombing raids on the southern town of Raga, which fell to rebels earlier this month, the Roman Catholic church said on Wednesday. A mother and her baby were among those killed in an air strike on Sunday, according to Bishop Caesar Mazzolari of Rumbek Diocese, his diocese said in a statement released in Nairobi. “This is really diabolical, considering that so far the Sudan government has continued to deny humanitarian agencies access to Raga,” said Mazzolari. The Roman Catholic cleric said that Sunday’s air strike took place in the afternoon and involved between seven and nine bombs, which were dropped along a straight line on a strictly civilian section of the town. Mazzolari explained that Khartoum, which has been at war with the SPLA since 1983, had bombed Raga several times since they lost the town. – AFP
